With so many Salesforce customers out there, successfully running business-critical applications in the cloud, one could ask why would we change anything? Why would we move to Lightning, is it worth the risk? When should we move and how?
This presentation is inspired by real-life Salesforce LEX migration projects. It provides both return on field experience and research work.
These are the slides I used at London's Calling 2017.

The document compares Network Address Translation (NAT) Gateways and NAT instances in AWS. Some key differences include:
- NAT Gateways are highly available across Availability Zones, while NAT instances require manual failover configuration.
- NAT Gateways have higher bandwidth limits and performance optimized for NAT traffic. NAT instances are limited by the instance type.
- NAT Gateways have a fixed hourly cost, while NAT instance costs depend on instance size and usage.
- Only NAT Gateways can be configured without a public IP address or associated security groups.
This document proposes a hybrid SaaS architecture to address companies' concerns about data resilience and privacy when using cloud applications. The architecture involves keeping a local copy of the application data that is synced with the cloud copy. If the cloud goes down, the application can fallback to the local copy. The local copy can also be segmented by region or country to address data privacy concerns, since no customer data would be stored in the cloud. This hybrid approach delivers high availability and data privacy while allowing the application to be centrally managed as SaaS.

An introduction to AWS CloudFormation - Pop-up Loft Tel AvivAmazon Web Services
This document introduces AWS CloudFormation, which allows users to automate the deployment and configuration of AWS resources through templates. CloudFormation templates describe the configuration of AWS resources using JSON or YAML files. When deployed, the template creates a "stack" of linked resources. Common uses of CloudFormation include replicating environments, deploying across regions, and disaster recovery. The document also discusses best practices like reusing templates, using parameters and mappings, and versioning templates with AWS CodeCommit.
The document discusses Redshift Workload Management (WLM) which allows managing concurrent queries running on Redshift. It covers defining query queues, modifying the WLM configuration, assigning queries to queues, and WLM properties. Tips provided include separating long-running queries, setting total concurrency below 15, avoiding too many queues, and using the superuser queue for troubleshooting. The document also discusses Redshift performance factors and compression encodings.

The document discusses leadership capital and how measuring leadership can help determine a company's market value. It introduces the Leadership Capital Index as a tool to help investors assess leadership confidence from 5% to 30-40%. The index has two domains - individual leader competencies and organizational human capital systems. Each domain contains elements that can be measured through interviews, surveys, and observations. Metrics are provided to evaluate factors like a leader's personal proficiency, strategic abilities, talent management skills, and an organization's culture, accountability, and information processes. The goal is to help investors better understand and value the intangible asset of leadership.
The document provides an overview of management consulting, including the author's background working for various consulting firms, what management consulting involves, typical roles, lifestyles, careers, and tips for excelling.

The document aims to help readers understand the field of management consulting and how to break into the industry.
AWS Certification Paths And Tips for Getting CertifiedAdam Book
The document provides an overview of various AWS certifications, including the Solutions Architect (Associate and Professional levels), Certified Developer (Associate), SysOps Administrator (Associate), and DevOps Engineer (Professional) certifications. It outlines the domains and percentages covered in each exam. The document also provides tips for preparing for AWS certification exams, such as reading documentation, creating a practice AWS account, practicing sample questions, watching relevant videos, and not taking too much time between exams.
This document outlines an agenda for an AWS Certified Solutions Architect Associate level training course. The course will cover various AWS services over 8 sessions, including S3, CloudFront, Route53, EC2, VPC, RDS, DynamoDB, CloudFormation, SQS, Elastic Beanstalk and security. The exam overview is provided, including details on exam format, duration, number of questions, passing score, prerequisites and validity. Key topics covered in the exam are grouped into design of highly available, cost efficient and fault tolerant scalable systems, implementation and deployment, and data security.
The document discusses five key principles for architecting applications on AWS: elasticity, designing for failure, loose coupling, security, and performance. It provides examples and services for each principle such as using Amazon EC2 for elasticity, designing with fault tolerance using services like RDS and Route 53, loosely coupling components with services like SQS and SWF, leveraging security services like IAM, and scaling vertically with cluster compute or horizontally using services like ElastiCache for performance.
This document contains 30 multiple choice questions testing welding knowledge across various topics including welding processes, joint design, inspection methods, materials properties, and codes. The questions cover topics such as filler metal selection, essential variables requiring requalification, methods for increasing steel strength, defects that occur in parent material, and the purpose of shielding the welding arc.
The document discusses Salesforce's data modeling approach for business-to-consumer (B2C) deliveries using Person Accounts. It introduces Person Accounts as a solution that merges Account and Contact records to allow both B2B and B2C in Salesforce. It describes how Person Accounts work under the hood, including how enabling them modifies the data model and available fields. It also covers design considerations like record behavior, alternatives to Person Accounts, and tips for using them effectively. While Person Accounts provide an out-of-the-box solution, the document notes they still have some limitations and a roadmap for further improvements.
The same implementation team can perform differently in two different projects… In one case, the team struggles to reach its cruise speed, emptying the backlog at a very slow pace. In another case, the tools and processes in place are perfectly tuned, providing maximum velocity.
This presentation, based on more than 15 years of CRM implementations, will delve into good and bad habits both from the team leader and team member perspective.
Customers and System Integrators alike will learn what are the top performance killers and how to avoid them to improve not only speed but also quality of delivery. Your boss will be so impressed by “the new you”!

Factors affecting undergraduate students’ motivation at a university in Tra VinhAJHSSR Journal
ABSTRACT: Motivation plays an important role in foreign language learning process. This study aimed to
investigate student’s motivation patterns towards English language learning at a University in Tra Vinh, and factors
affecting their motivation change toward English language learning of non-English-major students in the semester.
The researcher used semi-structured interview at the first phase of choosing the participants and writing reflection
through the instrument called “My English Learning Motivation History” adapted from Sawyer (2007) to collect
qualitative data within 15 weeks. The participants consisted of nine first year non-English-major students who learning
General English at pre-intermediate level. They were chosen and divided into three groups of three members each
(high motivation group; average motivation group; and low motivation group). The results of the present study
identified six visual motivation patterns of three groups of students with different motivation fluctuation, through the
use of cluster analysis. The study also indicated a diversity of factors affecting students’ motivation involving internal
factors as influencing factors (cognitive, psychology, and emotion) and external factors as social factors (instructor,
peers, family, and learning environment) during English language learning in a period of 15 weeks. The findings of
the study helped teacher understand relationship of motivation change and its influential factors. Furthermore, the
findings also inspired next research about motivation development in learning English process.
KEY WORDS: language learning motivation, motivation change, motivation patterns, influential factors, students’
motivation.
The Impact of Work Stress and Digital Literacy on Employee Performance at PT ...AJHSSR Journal
ABSTRACT :This research aims to analyze the correlation between employee work stress and digital literacy
with employee performance at PT Telkom Akses Area Cirebon, both concurrently and partially. Employing a
quantitative approach, the study's objectives are descriptive and causal, adopting a positivist paradigm with a
deductive approach to theory development and a survey research strategy. Findings reveal that work stress
negatively and significantly impacts employee performance, while digital literacy positively and significantly
affects it. Simultaneously, work stress and digital literacy have a positive and significant influence on employee
performance. It is anticipated that company management will devise workload management strategies to
alleviate work stress and assess the implementation of more efficient digital technology to enhance employee
performance.
KEYWORDS -digital literacy, employee performance,job stress, multiple regression analysis, workload

11. Influencer No. 22
“The first people I ever followed on Twitter in
2008 were all in the Salesforce space. Admins,
devs, tech-types seem to love Twitter and to talk.
There are hashtags, people to @ reply, people
who’ll jump in on threads, terrible puns, threads
that go on for dozens/days, 80s/90s references,
and even more terrible puns. Talking about
Salesforce on Twitter is fun.”

14. Tips for
Twitter
Success
from
Salesforce
Influencers
7
1 “If you need help, use
hashtag #askforce; if you
want to talk about the
company or its products,
use #salesforce.”
– Cheryl Feldman
2 “Even if you have a lot of
followers, only a fraction
of them see each of your
posts. Don’t be afraid
to share the same post
a couple of times if it’s
important.”
– Rebecca Dente
3 “Finding a key phrase
inside a blog post, quoting
it, and then attributing it
to the author with their
Twitter handle goes a long
way to adding value to
community.”
– Zachary Jeans
4 “Curate the content. Don’t
just post stories because
they are about Salesforce;
if you find them interesting,
it’s likely your followers
will, too.”
– Keir Bowden
5 “Any Salesforce consultant
or administrator has some
secret sauce; they do
something different that is
worth talking about. Figure
out what that is, and share,
share, share.”
– Garry Polmateer
6 “Give it context, make it
visual. Add in a video, or
a screenshot.”
– Matt Bertuzzi
7 “I use the Buffer app and
cannot recommend this
enough.”
– Michael Gill

15. Increasing Your Influence:
The Science of Social Authority
Want to be on our
next list of Salesforce
influencers on
Twitter? Our rankings
are based on
FollowerWonk’s
Social Authority
metric, which relies
heavily on clicks and
retweets as measures
of engagement.
Here are some tips
to increase your
influence and grow
your Salesforce
network on Twitter.
• Include the word “Salesforce”
in your Twitter bio, and hashtag
it. All of the top influencers
use the company name in their
bios, instead of the shorter
alternative, SFDC.
• Tweet often. But you don’t
have to Tweet 20 times a day;
the more you Tweet doesn’t
mean you’re more influential.
Tweet once to three times per
day on one subject to become
influential over time.
• Tweet recently. All of the
Twitter influencers on our list
had Tweeted within the last two
weeks (as of March 31, 2015).
• Mention influential Twitter
handles in your posts. Don’t
spam them, but ask relevant
questions or send them links to
articles they may like.
• Follow influential people.
Follow the influencers on this
list. See who the influencers
are following. As a rule of
thumb, if you follow them, they
may follow back.
• Follow even more influential
people. Find them by searching
keywords like “Salesforce,”
“SFDC,” or “Force.com” in the
Twitter search box. Once found,
click on their Lists to see lists of
Salesforce Tweets and handles
you may be interested in and
their Favorites to possibly find
memorable Salesforce Tweets
and topics of interest.
• Be public. When your Tweets
are protected (or your
profile is marked as private),
everyone can’t see what you’re
influencing about.
